A photograph of a man seated on an ornate silver-framed throne-like seat, holding a silver trident-staff in his raised right hand. He wears a red-orange garment, a multicoloured garland of red, white and yellow flowers, and a gold chain necklace with a brown rudraksha mala, and has long swept-back dark hair and white forehead markings. Behind him, rows of people dressed in white sit on tiered red steps in a bright outdoor setting, with a golden pillar at left. The appearance matches the a person candidate, shown in person in a seated ceremonial role.
